Answer 1

Answer:

The grass is always greener on the other side. However, open learning and regular college both have their advantages and disadvantages in terms of convenience, rules and regulations, flexibility, access to study material and teachers and social circle.

A regular college goer might not find it very convenient going to college everyday, during rainy, hot or extremely cold months. An open learning student has the advantage of not attending classes daily. However, the learner might have to sit through extended sessions during weekends, unlike the well-distributed academic sessions for a normal college student.

Additionally, the normal college student has to adhere to rules and regulations on a daily basis. Open learning institutions hardly have any students coming into the campus. Hence, the students do not have any code of conduct to follow each day.

When it comes to flexibility, learners enrolled with open learning institutions are free to work full time during their course of study. Regular colleges however, demand about 70 % attendance, making it difficult for students to pick up a job side by side.

Open school learners often find it challenging to make time for studies on a daily basis. Their focus is more on their work, unlike students in a regular college, whose main purpose (at that stage of life) is to focus on their studies and build a career. The grades usually show a big difference between the two types of learners.

Students in regular colleges are extremely lucky to be able to approach their teachers and get their doubts cleared. Alternately, they can also visit the college library for the same. Open institution learners suffer heavily on that front. They do not have that sort of access to teachers, nor do they have an institutional library that is close to them for ready access.
